Mueller is the chef, the recipe has been defined

Trump’s people are flipping like pancakes

So much for having the presence of mind

In the beginning, your loyalties were aligned

Suddenly your livelihoods are at stake

Mueller is the chef, the recipe has been defined

Papadopoulos was the first, who revealed the outline

Flipping first like a well done steak

So much for having the presence of mind

Then came Manafort, who followed in kind

Now he wears an ankle bracelet, that’s got to take the cake

Mueller is the chef, the recipe has been defined

Possibly laundering money, Gates too, has been confined

Suddenly its all been a big mistake

So much for having the presence of mind

That probe is gaining heat, the wheels of justice are getting primed

Hearings for Flynn and his son, they will soon partake

Mueller is the chef, the recipe has been defined

So much for having the presence of mind
